The New York World, IN speaking
Of the recent death Of Gen, John A.
Logan, says: "The sudden death of
Senator Logan, after a brief illness,
which 1t was supposed his apparently
strong constitution would enable him
TO throw off, adds another TO the roll
of public men who have, with startling
frequency, passed over to the majority
within the past two years. Gen, Lo-
gan had a striking and picturesque
personality that gave him unique
distinction among the present repre-
sentative Americans. Without either
liberal education or the capacity for
absorbing knowledge and taking on
the polish of culture that many Amer
leans of lowly origin have possessed,
Gen, Logan was still for many years
force in politics and public affairs,
and leader Of his party. His success
was duo to the inherent honesty Of his
nature and TO q frankness, bolduess
and loyalty to friends as admirable as
they are rare In modern politicians,
He had, Furthermore, when aroused,
a certain cyclonie force like that of
his native prairies, together with great
tenaclty of purpose and rude ele-
quence born of intense conviction,
which combined to give him popular
ity before the people and power in
legislative bodies, In Senate Of
millionaires he remained comparatively
a poor man, after life spent in poll
tics and the public service, And this,
in itself, Is distinction that crowns
his memory; He was an honest man."

Times Democrat :

/
! The great speech at the Puritan
banquet in New York on "Forefathers'
Day" December 20, was that made by
Mr.. Henry W. Grady, of the Atlanta
Constitution. 1t seems singular that
at dinner to commemorate New
England progress, advance and civili-
zatIon, the most striking address should
be one made by Southern man and
about the South, but on this point the
New York, and generally the North
ern press, is united that Mr.. Grady
carried off the honors of the dinner,
making the most striking and signifi-
cant remarks.
Mr.. Grady's speech was manly ap-
peal to the North to wipe out the Bit
ter memories of the war. The New
South was doing its share would the
North respond ? He continued:
The new South is enaniored of her
new work. Her soul is stirred with
the breath of a new life. The light of
a grander day is falling fair on her
face. She is thrilling with the con-
sciousness of growing power and pros
perity. AS she stands, full-statured
and equal among the people of the
earth, breathing the keen air and look
ing out upon the limitless horizon, she
understands that her emancipation
came because 10 the inscrutable wis
dom of God her honest purpose was
crossed and her brave armies were
beaten.
This is said in no spirit of time-serv-
ing and apology. l should be unjust
to the South if l did not make this
plain in this presence. The South has
nothing to take back.
What answer has New England to
this message9 Will she permit the
prejudice of war to remain in the
hearts of the conquerors, when it has
died in the hearts of the conquered
Will she transmit this prejudice to the
next generation that in their hearts
never felt the moving issues in the
struggle long passedG Will she with
hold, save in strained courtesy, the
hand which, straight from his soldiers
heart, Grant offered to Lee at Appo.
mattox If she does, the South,
never abject in asking for this, must
accept with dignity its refusal, but if
she does not refuse to accept in frank
ness and sincerity this message of
good will and friendship, then will tho

applause, become true, be
verified in its fullest and final sense,
when he said "Stauding hand to

sixty years, citizens of the same coun.

Horrible Death of "A PrOhIbl-
Zionist at DanvklIe, Ky.

DANvrLLE, Dec. 2s.--The story Of a
barbarous crime comes from Junction
City, some thirty miles from here. On
Christmas night the body of W. 7.
Clarkson, a man Of exemplary habits,
was found lying, bruised and bleed
ing, in the rear of saloon. Mr..
Clarkson had been a strong advocate
Of prohibition, and it was known that
for several years he had not tasted a
drop of liquor, although he had once
been heavy drinker. On Christmas
morning Mr.. Clarkson went on busi-
ness to the house of Dan Twaddle,
foreman of the stave factory, where
he was employed. After much per-
suasion and chidlng Twaddle induced
Clarkson to taste glass of eggnogg.
A second and third glass followed,
until Clarkson became tipsy. They
then went to bar-room, where drink
after drink was forced on the un-
willing victim until he sank uncon.
scious to the floor. Glass after glass
of red liquor was then poured down
the throat of the unconscious man
until he was actually saturated with
the poison.
The crowd that had collected to en-
Joy the fun then lifted the helpless
and dying man into an express wagon,
on which they painted the sign: "Sa-
cred to the Memory of Prohibition
Died Dec. 25." The wagon was then
driven about the streets until night
fall, when the body of the man, now
cold and stiff in death, was thrown
into the yard where found. What
makes the deed more diabolical is the
fact that there is probably no law un-
der which the perpetrators can be
punished.-Speciat TO Times
Democrat.
If the facts are as above stated,
there is plenty of law to punish the
of this diabolical outrage |
and murder. and we hope, for the sake
Of humanity and the cause of chris
.ianity, that the good people of Dan
Vile will see that the law be enforced
md the perpetrators be brought to
account for what we consider a cold |
1looded and premeditated murder.

Baton Rouge CapttOliaa. AdVocate
A few of our "anti " contemporaries
have grown nervous over the Farmers
Convention, which is to assemble in
our city on the Goth of January prox.
They fear that, like the levee people,
the farmers may get it into their
heads that Gov. McEnery is ever ready
to do all in his power to promote their
welfare, and that the convention, by
resulting advantSgeously to the agri-
cultural interests of the State, might
give the Governor another boom.
With these few exceptions, the press
10 unanimous in urging the farmers to
attend the convention, which they
wisely regard as Of the utmost inn
portance to Louisiana's greatest in
dustry. To the infinite displeasuro of
his opponents the Governor believes
in building leyees, in pushing the agri-
cultural and other industries, in in,
viting immigration, encouraging rail
roads, sustaining education, and in
everything else that will promote the
general welfare of the people of the
State, He hasn't lazy bone in his
body and keeps close up with the
march Of progress.

CURE FOE PILES.

Piles are frequently preceded by a sense OF
weight in the back, lofns and lower part OF
the abdomen, causing the patient to suppose
he has some affection of the kidneys or neigh
boring organs. At times. symptoms of indI-
gestiOn are present, hatulency, uneasiness of
the stomach, etc. A moisture like perspira-
ton, producing very disagreeable itching,
after getting warm, is common attendant.
Blind, Bleeding and Itching Piles yield at
once to the application Of DR.. Bosanko's Pile
Remedy, which acts directly upon the parts
affected, absorbing the Tumors allaying the
intense itching, and effecting a permanent
cure. Price so cents. Address The Dr. Bo-

The gathering in Opera Hall. Sum
day evening bore ample testimony to
the general interest taken in the Y

on the work. In the absence OF the

citation, Rev. Mr.. Wilson acted as
chairman of the meeting. The Rev.
Mr.. Donnelly and the Rev. Mr.. Spen-
Ger made short addresses relative to
the need of an association in Owosso
and its prospect Of success. The
desirabllity of the city's having a
free reading room and library was
enlarged on. A choir under the
leadership of Mr.. Duff had charge Of
the singing. Mr.. Inglis, Of Saginaw,
spoke of the Y. M. C. A. work in
general, forcibly presenting its most
important features.
The Importance of the organization
of a Y. M. c. A. to Owosso and the
country about it can not be overesti
mated. it means welfare to every
person and to every interest with
which it comes in contact. 1t deserves
healthy support.

His Return.

Somewhere about two years ago
DR.. Hess, of Grand Rapids, was in
duced by number of his patients
here to visit our city for the accom-
mediation of many who desired
his services, but could not 60 to
Grand Rapids TO see him, aud while
here he so skillfully treated and
cured some very difficult cases OF the
most aggravating nature, thet hay
been considered incurable and since
that time his practice here has been
steadily increasing until now once
again by urgent request he has
agreed TO visit here again for a time
as heretofore one day, each alternate
week. In justice to him be il said
that not one case that he treated and
cured but have remained we'll up to
the present time. He seems TO have
complete mastery over chronic dts
eases but more especially in lis spec
ia)ities which arc cancer, consumption
stomach troubles and epiletic fits; so
if there are any who are suffering
with some dreaded disease and have
lost all hope, and become discourac ed
we advise them to try once more as
your Case may prove like many others,
that through the praiseworthy treat
ment OF DR. Hess are well and enjoy
